What people say, in short
Handi on MI Road is one of Jaipur's most-recommended non-veg restaurants, praised above all for its laal maas, junglee maas and butter chicken; one diner singles out the galouti kebabs and chicken tikka. The caveats: one commenter says the food suits visitors' palates more than locals', one says quality has slipped in recent years and a few found the laal maas disappointing, while a regular of over two years says the taste hasn't changed. Two find it a bit pricey.
